Pronunciation: Sentence Stress When we listen in English, it is easier to hear one word more than the others. This word is louder than the other words. It is usually more important. This word has the main stress. Listen a second time to the conversation and circle the word that has the main stress. Listen a third time and repeat. Dr. Smith: Hello, Sasha.
